- Everyone,
- I have learned recently about a Firefighter here in Georgia that is in
- desperate need of our help. His name is Craig Samples, a 33-year old
- Firefighter in Gwinnett County, Georgia. Craig has been stricken with
- Lou Gehrig's Disease, a muscular/neurological disease that renders the
- body useless, even though the mind remains very alert. Craig has spent
- his life serving the public as a firefighter, and now, because of his
- disease, he cannot even support his own family. His disease has
- progressed to the point that he can no longer even speak clearly. In
- addition, due to his condition, there is the added expense of wheel
- chairs and other medical devices and services that are needed. I am
- asking everyone that reads this to please send a small donation to help
- Craig. Even $5.00 could make a big difference to him. Donations can
- be
- made by sending it to the following address:
-
- Craig Samples
- C/O Partytown BBS
- 778 Windsor Circle
- Lawrenceville, GA 30245-3119
-
- All checks should be made payable directly to Craig Samples. No money
- sent will go to the proprietors of this or any other system. All
- donations will be forwarded directly to Craig. I am doing what I can
- to
- help. Can't you give just a little to this man who has given his
- entire
- life to his community.
-
- Thank You
